Abstract: An interposer connector for surface mounting a ceramic chip carrier to a printed circuit board comprises a dielectric base member having top planar surfaces and bottom surfaces formed as a series of rectangular projections, each of the projections having recesses therein. Electrical terminals have U-shaped contact sections, intermediate sections, and flat contact sections. The U-shaped contact sections are mounted onto respective projections and have dimples disposed in the recesses thereby securing the terminals onto the projections, the intermediate sections extend along outside surfaces of the base member and the flat contact sections extend along the top surfaces of the base member.
